I read it because you're an interesting human being and through your stories, I get a sense of who you are, how you've struggled, and how your struggles and accomplishments are like/unlike my own. The great mentors teach how to work more efficiently so you accomplish more than you peers/competitors. Just like me.

Collaboration definitely leads to success, but it is the accountability from a leader that allows a group to succeed. As a marketer, I couldn't care less about getting to the top and having to manage the accounting or HR departments. Collaborative leadership by its very definition is rarely leadership at all.

He didn't take into account that a lot of us have no possibility of working for themselves for reasons beyond their skills and ambition. From a macro perspective, it pays to penetrate this level of social networks to get things accomplished. Pay it forward, and try to help that person as much as you can.

Thanks Penelope :) Eduard Posted by Ideas With A Kick on November 12, 2009 at 4:46 am | permalink | Reply To your first point, if your priority is sightseeing, then having a job with lots of travel is a good way to accomplish the goal. And of course, when am I ever going to be in Amsterdam again with an expense account to pick up the tab?

These type of details are something a writer should take into account. It's not always a learning experience or an "aha! she was right!"

Even if I manage to do that, I will not feel like I have accomplished something important today. And then, when it turns out that it really does mean sleep inducing I didn’t feel accomplished. Once you are drama free, you could actually focus on accomplishing more goals. Who puts a word like that in a picture caption?

I think you need to write a post about things you've done right, things you want, and how you are going to move on and accomplish them. Once I got some very good advice from an accountant regarding a business venture. Breaking up so many times (and by your own accounts, you trying to convince him to take you back so many times)?

You're accomplishing herculean tasks few women ever think of attempting. Once when my husband was travelling I considered setting up a video camera to keep myself accountable for how I treat the kids. Ask yourself if you're doing the right things to accomplish this, not whether you measure up to June Cleaver.

We have seen big hits to our investment accounts…some are saying "I can't afford to retire now"…really? I encourage the spending debate for entrepreneurs (internally and externally) to be about why to spend, what it accomplishes, how it simplifies, what's the return, etc.

Our bank account barely noticed. When you scale it down to individual, good CEOs giving back to the 3rd world, hedge funds giving back to the ghettoes in a fun and fast way, you are saying that companies are not accountable to anyone, it is just individuals who are nice and good and make money, so what do those poor jerk people want?

Looking back I realize it was the one thing in my life that I could control, accomplish something, make progress, etc. When I read your account of September 11th, I cried like I did that day staring at the tv and at you and everyone covered in white dust. I think it saved me from a total downward spiral!

But if it's true that women have as much power in the workforce as you say, then why on earth should they not hold the harasser accountable for his unacceptable actions? I always have so many things to get done and feel like I'm never balanced if I don't accomplish it all. It says it all. This week is no exception.

[link] You have some serious catching up to do: surviving the World Trade Center collapse and having a sexually-abused past and a wussy husband are nothing compared to rubbing elbows with the President and First Lady and getting pictures for your Facebook account. (Do Also in Michelle Obama admitting that marriage is difficult.)

They wouldn't let me quit trumpet when I was in middle and high school, on the other hand, and I've never asked them about it but I imagine it had something to do with me being older, rather than younger, so that I was to be held more accountable for my commitments.

Their cups seemed to always overflow and I marveled at their accomplishments. Gen Y, sound familiar?). It had nothing to do with education.

The school is Nathan Bedford Forrest High School (yes) [link] F Rating as of 2007-2008 on the Florida School Accountability Grading Scale. We may be able to get news and peoples opinions at a more rapid rate than ever before but does that make them accurate and accountable? This isn't the norm, but it does happen.

I took a shot at Linkedin but then decided the benefits of having it were far outweighed by the hassle of worrying about and managing my account. But when watching TV or in a darkened movie theater, intimacy is so much simpler to accomplish. I would never use Twitter, Facebook or a Gmail account to discuss sensitive information.

You can still have joint marital finances/accounts, but setting up 2 checking accounts (one for his income and household necessities, one for your income and discretionary spending) makes it very clear what money is for what. They told us how smart we were and how we'd accomplish so much.

The quote "stand in the name of Jesus" demonstrates your irresponsible journalism and again discredits your negative account because we also PRAY and the invocation ended In Jesus's name Amen a standard way many end a prayer which was followed by Please stand for the National Anthem. This is why I feel lonely too.
